    Downtown/Financial district infill and small developments

    All but the most adventurous hardcore -- actual "hardcore" and not math or post-hardcore or art punk etc etc etc. -- is pretty exclusively 4/4. There's plenty of cut-time in the breakdowns, but that's not a time signature change. Agree it wouldn't be a terrible name for a first band, though...

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    The negative comments are, in this case, accurate comments. It's an ugly building that in no way enhances the city or the skyline. I preferred the skyline w/o this thing -- and I'm both pro-development and pro-tall. It's better than a vacant, decaying garage, but that's about the best to be...

    Assembly Square Infill and Small Developments | Somerville

    This ^^^ is very much my take on both, as well. Assembly is a pre-fab outdoor mall, very non-city in character, and very homogeneous. Seaport -- whatever the critiques (too expensive, too elitist, not enough transit options, too many "glass boxes," too "squat") -- has distinct and differing...

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Informative and well-written post -- thanks! Also: curious how you're enjoyng life in CX. It's a really fascinating development not that far from my own digs. Oh, and I, too, really like the new Winthrop park, especially the fountain (both are better than the "tower" and certainly less...

    Please stop.

    Sounds like you'd be happier elsehwere. Seemingly the late 19th century, somewhere in Studham, Bedfordshire. Don't let the Grey Poupon hit you on the way out.

    Please stop.

    I can't tell if you're a troll, or legitimately going through life cosplaying as a upper-class British snob.

    Winthrop Center | 115 Winthrop Square | Financial District

    Which has always baffled me, because certain cities in similarly cold (or colder) areas -- Philly, NYC, Chicago -- have way more fountains and they all (or most, anyway) seem to be working just fine whenever I visit. Brewer Fountain by Park Street wasn't functional for nearly (more than?) a...
